If you fall among those who still are looking for a reason to enter into the world of blogging, here's one which am sure would motivate you and get you started in the world of blogs.
If recent HR trends are to be believed HR managers and recruiters are increasingly looking at a prospective employee's blog before hiring. One of the main reasons for the same is to get an insight into the personality of the candidate.
Many have believed that one can't judge a person well enough in an interview and so nowadays recruiters are trying to build an image of their prospective candidated via their blogs.
Pretty innovative, isn't it? :)

Random thoughts
Hola people!!! Well this one is a special one... for one i am posting when the sun still's out there, or rather not there.... well the weather is what one would call the quintessential monsson weather... its been more than 2 hours since its been raining and the Rain God hasn't eased on the pedal in the entire duration...
All my wing mates... members of our thalua gang have gone for labs... labs... how can one think of them in such a weather man... thats totally against the spirit of...spirit of... spirit of everything dammit :D.....
Well nothing much happening except the open structure of our hostel taking a nice bath... the common area at the junction of the wings in first floor is already flooded... and well i am looking at the prospect of having to remove water from my room if this doesnt stop soon... but then there's another part of me... who just wants the rain to go on and on... i guess spending your entire life in Rajasthan can do that to you....

Apna Budhau Kaka
its quite late... 2:52 am to be exact. I have got a lecture in the morning... yeah a lecture on a damn saturday..... and i as usual have just returned form an interesting session of bak... yup... bak, bakar... the quintessential time pass of all teenagers.
Chalo now lets come to the point... our very own... Budhau kaka... which as is the norm, was the subject of our bak :D
As we discussed Sid, and hiz laziness in great and amusing detail, i thought why not share some of it over here. And so here i am writing this post... which am sure would again not qualify as a blog post in Balu's eyes ;)
Ever since he has returned from his internship he seems to have aged more. Aj to had hi ho gayi... Sid actually sent Saru and me to get him a pack of biscuits from Daddu's... and why? coz dear Sid kaka was too tired to put on a t-shirt over his vest :P I guess this comment pretty much sums it all "Nowadays Sid is too tired even to talk."
So people come lets celebrate LaZiNesS...

Herbie...
Hmmm.... A post after a long long time! Feels really good to be posting something after such a gap. And what a post this is going to be! Man have been driving a car for more than 5 years now... and what happened yesterday has never happened to me...never! It was the creepiest thing that i have ever experienced. And what with recently seen Lindsay Lohan in action in Herbie, the memories came flooding back to me.
Ohk let me start from the beginning. The month of july brings with it a surge of marriages and assorted ceremonies in north India. The occasion was my neighbour's engagement and I had gone to attend the ceremony with my bua (read forced to go). The venue wasnt far from my place, just a couple of klicks. while going there nothing happened. It was an ordinary car ride.
The fun began on the retrun leg. For the past few weeks there's been some problem wid ma car. it wont start unless given a choke. As i started the car, i felt something was different. The engine was groaning rather than purring. I thought maybe i had accidently pressed the gas pedal too far, so i reduced the pressure a bit but nothing happened. Puzzled I removed my foot entirely form the accelerator, but still the sound didn't stop. I decided to mull over it later and put the car in gear. And Hey Presto! As i released the clutch, the car started moving, even though i hadn't stepped on to the gas. I thought it was coz of some slope in the road. but when the speedometer conintued to inch upwards on a straight road, with my foot firmly staying away from the gas, I was amused. I thought maybe the pineapple juice that i had consumed rather lavishly was taking its toll on me :P! But in front of my own eyes the speedometer kept moving upwards... from 30 to 40 to 45. At one point it even touched 60! The entire journey i drove only using the break; acceleration was taken care of automatically!
Had I been alone i would have thought I had hallucinated the enitre thing, but my bua was there to confirm the incident. Maybe my car finally got tired of me and decided to pull a Herbie on me! Who knows...

She...
She was like a whiff of fresh air...
She was like the freshness of spring...
She was like the innocence of summer...
She was like the warmth of winter sunshine...
She...
She was the person sittin in front of me...
She was a throwback to the eras bygone...
She... who was she???

Professor...
As the clock ticks away, indicatin the passage of time, the approaching dawn, i try and recollect what all happeed to me today... not much in the sens that after giving ma STS presenttaion, i came back nd tokd over an hour on phone and then slept like a log... wait a second... lets rewind to the STS presenmtation... till last night i wasnt sure if i would be able to do it... till early morning i had decided i would be firmly standing behind the podium and read... but.... as i climbed up dat dais... something happened... somethin fundamental changed in me... and it was lik... damn everything... this place belongs to me... i am gonna move around and not be rooted behind the podium.. i'll speak wateva comes to my mind and not some crap that i had prepared....
I did wat i wanted to... and as with ma prev presentation( read the ibf one) this also went well... and left me wondering... is this wat am destined to do for the rest of ma life? is it the Lecture theatres where i would be spendin ma life? a place that i dont lik visitin as a student...does it beckon me... i don't know wat future has in store for me... but dont be surprised if some fine day ur children may jus come across professor....
